Jimmy Mars Moves to Second at Superior; Busy Legendary 100 Weekend Ahead

(MENOMONIE, WISCONSIN) Jimmy Mars and his Mars Racing team ventured north to Gondik Law Speedway in Superior, Wisconsin on September 11-12 for the 'Russ Laursen Late Model Classic.' The WISSOTA Late Model special drew a 24 car field to the Badger State oval to do battle for the $5,519 top prize.

On Friday night, Jimmy improved five spots in his first heat race to finish second and later wound up third in his final heat race of the evening. After running fifth in the fast dash, Jimmy started the 40-lap headliner on Saturday from the inside of the third row. The Menomonie, Wisconsin standout then steered to the front in the feature, made a bid for the lead on several different occasions, and eventually netted a strong runner-up performance behind only race winner Pat Doar. Full results from the 'Russ Laursen Late Model Classic' can be viewed online at www.gondiklawspeedway.com.

The Dirt Late Model Hall of Famer has a hectic weekend in store for him at Cedar Lake Speedway in New Richmond, Wisconsin from September 17-19. The annual running of the ‘Legendary 100’ is on tap for this weekend and Jimmy will enter both a Late Model and an Open Wheel Modified. The payday for the Late Models throughout the weekend will be $1,000 on Thursday, $1,250 on Friday, and $3,000 on Saturday, while the Modifieds will be racing for $700 on Thursday, $800 on Friday, and $2,000 in Saturday’s finale.
